Install PTZ Driver

This Axis product supports several PTZ devices. Please see www.axis.com for a complete list of supported devices, and to obtain the correct driver. To install a PTZ device you need to install the PTZ driver.

To install the PTZ driver go to PTZ> Driver Selection. Browse to find the driver (e.g. driver.ptz) and Upload. If the driver was successfully uploaded, it appears in the Select driver to use drop-down list. From this drop-down list, select the driver to install or remove, and click Save.

Select Activate PTZ to enable PTZ. The address of the connected device appears against Device ID. Choose the Device type from the drop-down list. To find which device type to use, consult the documentation supplied by the PTZ driver.

To complete the installation go to System Options > Ports & Devices > COM Port (see COM Port) and verify the settings.

Control Queue

The administrator can set up a queue for PTZ controllers from PTZ > Control Queue. Once set up, the PTZ Control Queue buttons appear in the Live View page offering one viewer exclusive control for a limited period of time. Other users will be placed in queue.
